« It’s like a breath that whispers and rushes through time... as it used to be Like an
Enigma, fading into the Sand. A book without pages, reflecting in Eternity... Towards Infinity »
Laurent Lunoir: Monk chant
Max Enix:
Acceleration of Time
Towards this distant Hillside
The creation of a world so wide
Movements through the shifting tides
Elise Wachbar:
As far as the sun can reach
Awakes the awareness
Life emerges through a breach
Towards a beautiful brightness
« From this water, so precious, essential to life, intelligence shall rise Resounding, with a deafening crash, the waves clash... and Dance... With scents of remembrance
The foam engenders the beautiful, shells of red, delightful
A silhouette moving through infinities of desires and possibilities Moving on, All fears apart
Eyes to the Glow
That settles in »
Max Enix:
INSIDE OUR HEARTS
Elise Wachbar:
Eyes looking at the sky...
« From the Cosmos to the Ocean »
The Blood running through our Veins...
« The Elements miracle »
Eyes closing...
« Through the water, still Stirring »
« A moment in Time ? »
Max Enix:
The Earth
The Earth is shaking
From this mountain...
Mountain witnessing
Meteor
Meteor showers
On these frightened...Frightened beings
FRIGHTENED BEINGS
Solo by Per Nilsson
« The end of an Era... The dawn of a new day
With fear of death they run away. But it’s too late... Time is the ravage they can’t escape
As Time passes by, always faster and faster
The Earth keeps spinning around, as a new path opens for nature... Diverse and always riche
Opened again, these new eyes still look at the same old skies »
Max Enix:
AT THE SAME OLD SKIES... OLD SKIES
OLD SKIES

Special guest is Derek Sherinian: All Piano
Max Enix:
Breathe, on this brand new path
The beauty of things, coming to life
This marrow of life, vanishing
Emotions like waterfalls, overflowing
This soothing river, running
Through these veins, mysteriously spreading
Max Enix:
Wind of,
Wind of freedom
Onwards,
Onwards the wisdom
There's no,
There’s no prison,
Just the,
Just the reason
Chorus:
Max Enix and Fabio Lione:
Tell me who take... who take the control
Of these lands full of... full of deep souls
Through you, in your arms... in your arms, I see you
This great escape... is offered by you
Michael Onetwenty and Max Enix:
Dear Mother Earth,
take care of yourself
Despite all the hurt, you love and embrace
Fabio Lione:
Feeling the burning heat,
those pains and hits
Of people who die,
and those who live
There's no time for fear,
but only for dreams
Of a better world,
away from tears
Michael Onetwenty:
Take our,
Take our hand
To cradle,
To cradle and nurse
All of,
All of us
Under,
Under a red sun
Chorus:
Max Enix and Fabio Lione:
Tell me who take... who take the control
Of these lands full of... full of deep souls
Through you, in your arms... In your arms, I see you
This great escape... is offered by you
Michael Onetwenty and Max Enix:
Dear Mother Earth,
take care of yourself
Despite all the hurt,
you love and embrace
Michael Onetwenty: This time
We must
Face what we have done
Mothers crying
Over the blood
That was spilled when the
kings of the old times were one
Cause She’s sick of the way that we take away all of her
Michael Onetwenty:
These are the tears of the earth
We have pushed to the edge
Now it’s time to repent
Now it’s time to repent
Let the conference begin
Let the conference begin
Spread the word to a friend
Spread the word to a friend
Michael Onetwenty: Ever a time
When we didn’t take
Take it all the way
Now she’s crying
« Across the shore, the elements rage, sounds of doom
The wind caressing their faces now, the innocents knew,
They once spilt their blood in those distant and ageless woods Covering their voices, in their homes underground, They escape
Safe from danger, glad to be alive, Together, observing the landscape »
« Mother Earth, we love Mother Earth, we cry to you Mother Earth, we pray to you Mother Earth, let us all act... For you »
Michael Onetwenty:
We fly high, pray to the elements, in these places of blessing
We laugh, we play, with the wind caressing our cracked and golden skins
A meadow shining on our darkened thoughts, blackened by a past that is here no more
We witness to the wonders, of the land, filled with magic and brightness
A sun that shines on our faces, cleansing our souls, tormented and sore
That heartbreaking cry of hope,
From our past mistakes let's fly high above
Let’s fly high above
Let’s fly high above
Michael Onetwenty:
Birds are singing, on branches worn out by myriads of years
The leaves are bruised by summer,
« The sky foreshadows the winter »
but flashes of light shine through forever
Fabio Lione: FOREVER FOREVER
Fabio Lione:
Flames are up high
Machines will tear down
We cannot uphold
The passing of souls
Michael Onetwenty:
Still with the shrieking cries
Vibrations that never tire
Run, children, run children now
There is still time
« Innocents »
Fabio Lione:
Break the,
Break the cold Ice
Before,
Before we die
Chorus:
Max Enix and Fabio Lione:
Tell me who take... who take the control
Of these lands full of... full of deep souls
Through you, in your arms... in your arms, I see you
This great escape... is offered by you
Michael Onetwenty and Max Enix:
Dear Mother Earth,
take care of yourself
Despite all the hurt,
you love and embrace
« This path of renewal, watch us Like the phoenix, rise from our ashes This soothing river, flows vividly
And runs in our veins, infinitely »
« Los Angeles, someone named Ethan wakes from a troubled sleep For the world, he knows the outcome
The state of the present and the dangers to come
The destiny at hand, and what's to overcome...
again »
Elise Wachbar:
Don't forget where you come from,
my brother, my friend
Don't hide in there anymore,
my sister, my friend
Hand in hand
Ethan: « In their madness, all is destroyed by the human race. This will not do!
There's something better we can do!
And fate will go on, towards an ocean of joy, the one we've waited for so long.
Man will evolve, the world will change
Step by step, in its own way
Not following, like clones would do, what others did, do or will do We will follow a path of peace, respect, love, freedom, justice,
Angels of freedom Onwards to the wisdom Angels of freedom
In this place we come towards freedom... »
Michael Onetwenty:
Oh God, Oh God, Oh God,
Move forward with it
Let no Man, tell you what you gonna do
You better make a choice baby
You better take this shit
You better use it
Ahahahah
Fabio Lione: Freedom... Freedom
« He meets his friends downtown and witnesses, once again, society's decline »

City Of Mortals
10:15

Elise wachbar:
Falling and swimming,
and rising again
In this city
Looking and talking,
On a line upon the gaps
Believing in your dreams
In a world that's topsy-turvy
And beware of traps
Wake up now my friend
This is not the end
Corruption, conditioning
The black hole ahead
Elise wachbar:
Let's get back to values of old
Move onwards and be bold
Toby Driver:
On the way
Point your fingers
at the stars
And fly away
Max Enix:
Chorus:
In this city where vices reign
Throw your guns away
Down the road of disarray
Give up exploitations, tyranny, liars
And throw your venom into the fires
In this city where Evil lurks
Listen to the calls
Away from days of hurts
Against oppressions
No more pressures too high
No more "do or die"
Your future lies
Toby Driver:
This registered company,
filled with uncertainty
Game Over
Eternally starting over
The past mistakes and endeavours
And they divide,
crush the others
For their own interests
Fake news, with mens as targets
They think it's so funny
Statutes are all for money
Echoes of our time is what we get
Elise wachbar:
Unfinished educations there,
Only clones of their forebears
Toby Driver:
We need to be delivered
And shed the blood
Max Enix:
Chorus:
In this city where vices reign
Throw your guns away
Down the road of disarray
Give up exploitations, tyranny, liars
And throw your venom into the fires
In this city where Evil lurks
Listen to the calls
Away from days of hurts
Against oppressions
No more pressures too high
No more "do or die"
Your future lies
Max Enix:
All the same, born in fire,
cradled in hatred, they fight like dogs... Rebellion rages on
Memories of wars forgotten
Bodies exploding on
The warmachines and bombs
Max Enix:
For pieces of paper
For some Coins around the corner
In this machine so broken
We're let astray forever
Guitar Solo made by Xavier Boscher
Toby Driver:
In this uncertain world, getting sick again
Their conditions and their feelings, are not worth their weight of gold
« Pollution is gaining ground outside, Cars are driving, people are getting angry, Unaware of what's to be
What's to do with such a blindness? Economy, persecution
Consequences of their mistakes
Our eyes to new horizons »
« I see the meaning of this existence in the midst dins, overwhelming Wolves posing as lambs, these conspirators, inside these places devoid of meaning
So take your money, kill us and condemn us before we are rightfully punished... It's about time...
In a fair world... If only... »
Elise wachbar:
By misery
we're surrounded
But they don't care
They spend their killing others
When the world is so unfair
The power of money
shall break your life
Even for your grave
Even for your grave there's a price
Gang wars and other nonsense
Please, stop the madness
And they stand there, still laughing
About their infamies and clownings
Elise wachbar:
People are still dying in the streets
For how long my friends ?
Toby Driver:
We can't even protect children
From the sight of this world broken
Max Enix:
Chorus:
In this city where vices reign
Throw your guns away
Down the road of disarray
Give up exploitations, tyranny, liars
And throw your venom into the fires
In this city where Evil lurks
Listen to the calls
Away from days of hurts
Against oppressions
No more pressures too high
No more "do or die"
Your future lies
Toby Driver:
You can see Evil spread
The good is right ahead
If this is love we spread
Elise wachbar:
A minute of Silence, of Tolerance
We will be slaves no more
They are the blood-stained hands
Toby Driver:
Guilty for all the... GORE
« As they leave a bar, Ethan and his friends see on TV another killing outside a place of worship.
Was it a terrorist attack or an isolated act ?
They wonder about it, as they leave the city »

Drowning in the error, of the scent of resentment

Angèle Macabiès: Flows from your lips... Gods
Angèle Macabiès: Ethnic vocals
« Why all these bloodsheds, since the dawn of time?
Why these divisions? The wind of treachery that is blowing
They take the people's lives and money
What good can come from these meetings?
It's all in vain my child
Against the current they keep sailing »
Chorus:
Max Enix and Andy Kuntz:
In your name, the Betrayals
In your name, the blasphemies
In your name, the explosions
In your name, the divisions
Oh my God, save us
Send an Arc Angel
Oh my God, A Light
Max Enix:
And From the sky is coming down The Angel
A sorrowful soul who’s praying for us all
A ruined world under the shadows of the sky
His sempiternal spirit brings us to the light

In every truth a darken twist, reversing all meanings

Angèle Macabiès: Towards the Paradise... Gods
Angèle Macabiès: Ethnic Vocals
« Why the hell do you follow
Sects to an ocean of torment ?
They break your bones, enchain you and send your souls to pain
In this world to ruins, torn
Another island ahead of you
You slide down another notch
While quicksands still stop you »
Chorus:
Max Enix and Andy Kuntz:
In your name, the Betrayals
In your name, the blasphemies
In your name, the explosions
In your name, the divisions
Oh my God, save us
Send an Arc Angel

« We hold our beliefs tight,
a soul religion in the heart
Why can't we share our goals?
Why can't we just unite?
Look to the same direction,
touch the same horizon
And fly towards the light?
A light so pure and bright
Our eyes outshines the night »
Max Enix:
A time for reflection
A time to give
A time to smile and forgive
Jesus, I'm on your side
Andy Kuntz:
Don't let them take away our pride
Solo made by Xavier Boscher:
Ethan: « Under the bombs I come out
Under the trees I calm down
Under orders I call to arms
The sound of bells resound
Echoes of those who crucified
Inquisition, Vatican
The same old guilty ones
Jesus, here we are, on your side
You live again, under the stars
The prophets rise and shine »
« Arms on the cross The Gods sing
The call of the Divine Angels look and smile
Elsewhere
The paradox of good and evil
Some just believe in what they want
Some others won't feel anything
They do not seek, innocent souls,
scorned
Penetrated by the siren's call
They won't see the danger, not at all »

Andy Kuntz:
In this inverted world in decay
Born to destroy or to make peace
Take a deep breath and breathe
A dove will fly away today
Max Enix:
Light a candle and pray to the heavens
You are the master of your choices
Ignore prejudice
Midnight rings at your door
« Blood on your hands, Indoctrination
Places of worship, murder and punishment
Thou shall no longer destroy
Kill or rape in the name of God
This cross of suffering, symbol for all the tortures
Embodies various meanings
All meant for torturers
Free now with a symbol of peace
They call to sacrifice again
Innocent souls doomed to the fire in vain
Divide and conquer
Is that your only goal? »
Andy Kuntz:
Deceive and devour
Still search for the truth (scapegoats)
Take good care of the Love
While he keeps watching your path
We’re Still passing by, my goodness,
Like time under the same stars...
« These texts are all distorted
Added to serve their interests
You fools, with tearful eyes, at best,
You still await the better days »
HOPE / REDEMPTION / SALVATION
« You've been through so much
Have walked through life like a ghost
This world of yours is conditioned
A tomb that's doomed to explode
Freeing itself from Evil
The light is still behind the door
You'll find it in your heart
With peace to be guided by
Rise up, walk and smile
Don't ever let anyone
Destroy your soul that shines
Smile again, smile,
Rise up, walk and SMILE »

Max Enix:
Alone up the river
Pure air fueling my senses
Hair shining in the sun
Skin moistened by the water
Afar, the birds sing
A universal hymn
A place, a waking dream
In this enchanted world I see
A life of smile appears to me
On this path full of fantasy
Elise Wachbar: I breathe
I look at
The earth Trembling
Max Enix:
Behind this facade,
tell me what you see
Your soul preserved,
under the brown trees
Through these woods,
the smell of pines
Dreaming of a better world,
lost in time
Chorus:
Max Enix:
Dream of a peaceful world
Vibrating, carrying you away
A heaven on Earth
A return to the source,
Before the decay
Free from violence and murder
A world of color
And what do you see?
Max Enix and Farhad Hossain: I
llumination and dreams that spread
Through a world
Where all is born, then grown, then dead
Farhad Hossain:
Hidden in this path
Under the spring dew
Rose buttons,
a place in my heart
Where my mind finds it's way to you
Beings filled with love
Under the setting sun
Look at each other
Drowned in bliss
Lighting all these green hills
I sweat I am restless
I think And lie down
Elise wachbar: I sweat
I am restless
I think
And lie down
Farhad Hossain:
How sad to see a world destroyed
Consequences of this... carelessness around
Tell me what you hear
In this lost place of wonder
As I sit on the ground...
I surrender
Chorus:
Farhad Hossain:
Dream of a peaceful world
Vibrating, carrying you away
A heaven on Earth
A return to the source,
Before the decay
Free from violence and murder
A world of color
And what do you see?
Max Enix and Farhad Hossain:
Illumination and dreams that spread
Through a world
Where all is born, then grown, then dead
« At the origin of light
Innocence appeared in silence
They had no price, no particular form
No care for profit or money
No need to pretend
No need to fight for power
Surviving's all that mattered
No thoughts about the future
Living with one another
Harmony perfect
They fed their souls with what they felt
In this silence...
In this silence... »
Ethan: « Counting stars
All at one with them
Fragile souls around
With fear surrounding them
Counting stars
Watching them fall
Innocent souls around
The city heard their calls"
« In the distance
I hover like a plane, disjointed
The childhood toy I've found
People that love each other
Tenderness and smiles
Look at the moon's reflection
Entwined in sleeping woods
Memories, Imagination
Life as good as it could
In their dreams they fly like birds
All lost and twisted by the wind
Lanterns that burn and light
The same path at the same time
Kingdom beyond the clouds
The one I've always dreamed of Animals that shout out loud
And begging for protection Lights... »
Elise Wachbar:
And the fight inside goes on
A preserved nature still alive
Through the winds, still, on and on
The tranquil course of time
And I enter this forest
Daylight still not at rest
The moon widens its domain
Like an enchanted fountain
Max Enix:
While tears are rolling free
Tell me everything you see
The tremors of the past
Imerge again under my feet
Believe in destiny
Farhad Hossain:
And follow your own instincts
Grasshoppers jumping on the grass
Max Enix:
And land on your limbs
Farhad Hossain:
Fish jumping out of the rivers
Distant thoughts on your lips
Elise Wachbar: I feel
I breathe
And discover
Constellations
Max Enix and Farhad Hossain:
They live for good, on their own
Children's eyes to the future
Sincere hearts beating as one
Golden spangles fall from the sky
Chorus:
Max Enix and Farhad Hossain: Dream of a peaceful world
Vibrating, carrying you away
A heaven on Earth
A return to the source,
Before the decay
Free from violence and murder
A world of color
And what do you see?
Max Enix and Farhad Hossain: Illumination and dreams that spread Through a world
Where all is born, then grown, then dead
« Eyes closed
For the last time
Before you see the true light »
Max Enix:
Baby don't cry, your parents are watching over you
Baby don't cry, They will never leave you
For the sake of generations
Farhad Hossain:
And the ones that come ahead
« Forget your name for a while Guide them to consciousness »
« And the river flows into the ocean at the end of the road
Walking towards the cliff, he leaned against a tree to get a better view
And gazed down at the city below with a look of wonder
The crackling lights and the smoke from a chimney
The buildings were huge and threatening like a monster
Some streetlights seemed to akwardly move
The childhood demons still there
The very ones he once fought, rising his fist in clamour
He kept on looking, to the light emerging
The need to breathe strangled him
The inner joy saddened him
This beauty everywhere...
What are these humans doing? »
« Remembering his parents Dead in some car accident
This moment never fades away And him cry anyway
Your absence is a scar
But makes my whole life vibrate I think of you
You're here with me and I'm here too... »
Farhad Hossain:
Father... I see you through the stars
And Mother... The cosmos is your palace
Max Enix and Farhad Hossain:
Father... I see you through the stars
Mother... The cosmos is your palace

Upon the windows I cross
A smiling face appears
And still they wander, buried thoughts
A vibration without fear
Chorus:
Max Enix:
Is it a sign or a mirage?
A movement in the wind?
A vision, an hallucination?
Being alive and dreaming
Of an important moment

David Readman:
In the flames, a cell...
Imprisoned I be
Can you tell
What's become of me?
My crying calls...
Tell me, did she care?
What you call love
It wasn't there
The ceiling falls on me
It that imaginary?
The revolt born in me
The loss of hope to be
Max Enix:
Hello to the old destroyers
Demons of mine
The corridors in which I wander
Holes without a light
The path that can't be found
Eludes my twisted mind
In the meanders of my past
The key to my escape seems lost in time
X2
Max Enix:
Places around me
People laughing and crying
That inner voice set free
Calling and shouting
Chorus :
Max Enix and David Readman:
A sign of the times
The web is real
A war of the mind
Reality unreal
Don't let abominations
Gambling, Porn
and addictions
Get their grip on me / us
David Readman:
Divinity... Can you help me?
Can you take my hand again
And lead my way through the pain?
Because sleep eludes me
Hidden monsters set free
Evil is all I see
Down the hallway and inside of me
Inside of me there's only rage
Anger and poison and outrage
Condemn me to burn
A death in loops awaits my turn
Max Enix:
Condemn me to burn
A death in loops
awaits my turn
I drink and play and fall
I drink and play and split
The snake I made
swallows the ills
I spit There's another world
I escape in
Mind-crushing-numbing TV screen
Bodies spinning in circles
Spinning in circles
False shows and real pain,
Real pain and world in flames
Echoes of our times gone down the drain
The bitterness of this world
But I'm still fighting
David Readman:
I don't want to see them anymore
These false friends
who take advantage of people
False shows, real pain, world in flames
But I'm still fighting
Chorus :

A war of the mind
Reality unreal

« And then, a flash of light... Piercing my mind
Feelings of something bright
Here then gone in a flash
In this abandoned room
The phone is ringing
But this is not for me
That's not my dream
In pieces now it lays
And from my chains I'm free »
David Readman:
I belong with the birds
I belong with the trees
Chains...
"The shrill sounds clash everywhere in this space
He can no longer tell right from wrong, truth from lies
Silence... And the phone it rings, because his friends they wander What has become of him, did he fight or surrender? "
« Ethan had locked himself
In alcohol, in failures, and mostly in his self He had to come to something else
That part should leave without a trace

David Readman: RISE AGAIN
« Don't let yourself rot
Bottles of death are not
The way to conquer
Yourself or the other
Stay away from contagion
Streams of misinformation
To rise again, from dirt to flames
To move forward, the path is there
Your destiny awaits... »
David Readman:
Dizzy still, I break my chains
They'll never hold me back again
Max Enix:
These four walls
No longer closed
The meaning of Life
Max Enix and David Readman: I take control
Chorus :
Max Enix and David Readman:
A sign of the times
The web is real
A war of the mind
Reality unreal
Don't let abominations
Gambling, Porn
and addictions
Get their grip on me / us
David Readman:
A darkened soul
With flames behind
In this perverted world
Long lost shrine
Each day so harmful
I redefine my rules
Let its essence be mine
Worries to overcome
Easier said than done
See a silver tongue
But with light I can cope
Walking the Road of Hope
The Road of Hope x3
Max Enix:
I close this door now
And I shall never look back
This tunnel ends with light
I crave again
for hearing laughs of friends
And let this maze of torture
Drown in a glass of water
The fear seems far away
Ego is laid astray
So close to catastrophe
Bright days are meant to be
Solo made by Xavier Boscher
« Ethan decided to go back to the beach »
David Readman:
Back to the see, Feet in the sand,
Having a vision
Dreamlike and plain
The sound of waves carry no pain
Into the hollow, so intricate
Echoes and winds so delicate
The shooting stars reveal to us
« The moon is full, and speaks of us »
David Readman and Elise Wachbar: WAVES x Repetition
David Readman:
The meaning of it all
The rise and the fall
The cycle and the finitude
Like waves that wave in solitude
And I'm emerged now
Under the sky, a bath of Life
In this ocean all anger dives
Only magic here in my eyes
« The moves, the streams, The new, the dreams «
David Readman: TO LIVE AGAIN...

« Plastic bottles on the ocean floor
Turtles trapped in nets »
Max Enix:
Why should it be?
Tell me
Blue was the see
Now all is murky
Nauseating
What are they thinking?
All they do
is throwing
Gigantic piles of rubbish
I can see
no more fish
Dolphins in agony
Sacrificed
Carelessness reigns
We're paralyzed
Devon Graves (+Guitars): A rose still floating
Upon this bathing pool
Like a memory, still falling,
Wither and turn to mud
It weighs upon your heart
A vague and fluid form
Tries to reappear
Chorus:
Devon Graves:
How much longer
Will we not see
The Ravages and flaws
That flow into the sea?
It's right before your eyes
It’s easy to be blind
Deaf and dumb and blind
To the ills of our time
The truth that you deny Is calling now
« My skin is wet
The Corals swirl
The undercurrent Carries off the world »
Max Enix:
The Ocean Is dying
The wind Still blowing
Creatures are screaming
We are Not hearing
Harpoons Are flying
Like Death itself
Still diving
Birds are lying
Fight for life, breathing through oil
Nature chokes,
her soul is wrecked
Now hope seems gone or laid to rest
Like there is none
to fight against
All organs filled with plastic wastes
Devon Graves (+Guitars):
I take a ride on a serpent
A Way beneath the waves
Whispering can you please...
Can you please take me out of this place ?
To an island where I pray
For the world to make a stand
Wet feet on Summer sand
A peaceful quiet place
Chorus:
Devon Graves: How much longer
Will we not see
The Ravages and flaws
That flow into the sea?
It's right before your eyes
It’s easy to be blind
Deaf and dumb and blind
To the ills of our time
The truth that you deny Is calling now
« Let's get away from here
This ocean's made of tears
The bleak, the horror vision
Everdrowning salvation »
Devon Graves:
Your selfishness is limitless
The living breath seems worthless
« Without hesitation
We take, we take, we burn
The suffering unheard Consideration only whispered
A living creature
Reduced to be furniture
Or eaten on the altars
Of what man wants and desires »
Max Enix and Devon Graves:
Down to the Unknown (X 4)
Solo made by Xavier Boscher
Max Enix:
Against every current
All in the wrong direction
Seeing it all, they can't
All Life's annihilation
Soul-scavengers
Unconscious derelict
« At its core, mass destruction
A final, final conflict
In high and fragile towers
They lose their minds
On golden thrones they shiver
All fears entwined
Generations scorned
You're wasting all our times
It's written in the Universe
Ignorant lines »
Max Enix:
They hearts will turn to black
Like Karma fighting back
Like flies crushed in their flight
Fallen kings facing plight
« Corrupt, deprived
Of soul, of depth, of height
Mediocre fools, they fight For what is not their right
To them, I say goodbye
I bid farewell tonight »
Devon Graves (+Guitars): In dreams I see the sand
Devoid of all these stains
Under the moon it shines
The silver gleams so bright
I hear them in the night
The sound of whales
And now The rose is coming back
Petals of purple and black
Choruses:
Devon Graves:
How much longer
Will we not see
The Ravages and flaws
That flow into the sea?
It's right before your eyes
It’s easy to be blind
Deaf and dumb and blind
To the ills of our time
The truth that you deny
Is calling now
Max Enix:
Barbaric
as they act
Can't face the face of facts
Kill us
or save us all
Disaster chasing all
It seems
we're lost
Mistakes... foolishly take and take
Actions
without a sense
Blood as a quintessence
Max Enix and Devon Graves: All creatures soon extinct
Icicles are melting
So deaf to the warning
Most people never caring
Solo made by Xavier Boscher
Devon Graves (+Guitars): Back to the shores, then
The Serpent leads my hand
Throughout the coral halls
Will the future take it’s toll
Or will it be restored
Is it too late for all
The beings and the nature
So much left to discover
Ethan : « This ocean does not belong to us, it is not ours, just like these lands, these territories... We cohabit with the elements. Let's stop trying to possess everything.
Let's stop being out of touch with current issues
Let's not lose our anchored values The light is in us »
« Let us spread it as much as possible and everywhere The time is ahead of us, let's not hide it any longer to destroy unjustly and without reason. »
Max Enix:
A reason
to live
And another to believe
Is this a time to leave?
Is it my time to fly
Solo made by Xavier Boscher
« Away to search for air and starry skies?
The birds can show me how...
But as the sun appears
And it's rays pierce the clouds
I abandon all fears »
Max Enix:
A matter of perspective
Solo made by Mattias Ekhlund
« I see, I tremble, I am alive I believe, I smile and go
Like something from outside My body vibrates now
Like cosmic sudden vibes »
Devon Graves:
What kind of world are we living in?
The time has come for giving
To everyone and everything
From Strangers, to your next of kin
Max Enix:
Embracing in the distance
People around, they dance
The key-word is "together"
Like constellations gather
Wet sand shines of white foam
Universe is my home
And thy majestic form
Echoes in simple things
This colored shell, deformed
Max Enix:Tell me a story
Devon Graves: From all the world's end
Max Enix: Tell me your dreams
Devon Graves: From childhood bed
Max Enix: Tell me emotions
Devon Graves: Tell me vibrations
Max Enix: And of the seasons
Devon Graves: That bear no comparisons
Max Enix: Tell me about your life
Devon Graves: Tell me your desires
Max Enix: Are they buried inside
Devon Graves: Are you strong enough for light?
Max Enix: And tell your story then
Devon Graves: It can't be robbed or taken
Max Enix: It's only yours my friend
Devon Graves: Yours until the end
Max Enix and Devon Graves: A rose...
Devon Graves: Opens up Again
Again...
Max Enix: Harmony...
"Leaving this beach, Ethan walked up the river... The trees were dull and looked sad and distorted, but Hope was always present.
He stopped in front of an amusement park
From childhood, from afar, Memories flowing now..."

Max Enix:
This world has been so painful
The key to change it lies in you
Despite your ways so humble
Nothing is impossible
Johanna Red:
The memories are buried deep
Translucent rain wakes you from sleep
Imagine you on playgrounds, free
With your hands still full of candy
Max Enix:
Eyes closed to what should happen
Think of the path to tread
Johanna Red:
Better days lie ahead
And finally eyes flick open
Max Enix: As the wheels they keep turning
Johanna Red: And break up as they're rolling
Max Enix: Equilibrium's a lie
Johanna Red: You were born to act, in any way
Max Enix: Look...
Johanna Red: Now balloons fly away
Max Enix: Before your childish eye
Max Enix and Johanna Red: Fly Away
Max Enix: Tell me how you feel?
Max Enix and Johanna Red: Before that beautiful world
Max Enix:
Full of smiles that heal
And benevolent words
Solo made by Xavier Boscher
« Not all tears can be evil The water on your cheek Nostalgia for all »
Johanna Red:
The past was not all bleak
Children they sure deserve
To be guided and be served
« They are bound to grow up We're bound to not give up »
Max Enix:
Is it wrong to give a smile?
Was is the price to pay?
I have seen for a while...
The end of disarray
Max Enix: Society destroyed
Johanna Red: The happy child within
Max Enix: Turned you into a robot
Johanna red: Both arrogant and mean
Johanna Red:
Let them go To Hell
Let them do their own shit
Ethan: « Gather hands, children!
You're under watchfull eyes
For me it's time to listen
To voices I denied
I see the shapes here in the distance
Different routes, and an instant
That's what I'll take for me
I'll follow my own alley »

Max Enix: Tell me... where you are going
In this dark... and wet alley
Marcela Bovio: A bum... on the ground
Asking for... some change
Max Enix: Looking for... a new way
A door... To the unknown
Marcela Bovio: who walks... a pathway
Echoes of these... ancient worries
Max Enix: Screams Resonate... in the distance
Raped or beaten... to the ground... no chance
Max Enix:
What's going on in their minds? I'll never know
She looks so fragile in her silk clothes
Wrong place at the wrong time... Did heaven know?
The fight for freedom now is closed
And they just stand there watching
Taunting like rabid dogs
Enough is enough now
Revolt should take its toll
Chorus
Max Enix: Under the moonlight
I see a line
Marcela Bovio: Beyond this tragedy
I see the front's fire
Max Enix: Take all the bastards down
Their world is "me,me, mine"
Marcela Bovio: Their hands know no caress
Leave blood stains on the face
Max Enix: Under this scarlet moon
They'll leave without a trace
Marcela Bovio: They have no fear
Their hate is crystal clear
Max Enix: There never is a heartbeat
Their flesh is only meat
Marcela Bovio: Once execution's done
The end we finally meet
Marcela Bovio: This alley... darkened now
As time is passing by... Where women scream and shout
Max Enix: Always punishment time... They cry...
But no one hears a sound... No one hears a sound
Marcela Bovio: We're deaf, dumb and blind... To all their cries
The tragedies of men... Seem so pale in this light
Max Enix: When hands that should protect... Are used to beat the fragile
Just be a man!... Pathetic silly coward!
Marcela Bovio: You are the monster... That nightmares are made of Your blood-soaked eyes... Will never know Love..
Max Enix:
In this society
Full of inequality
Each one has to take place
Respect everyone's pace
The need for glory
Of this displaced respect
Makes you so ugly disarticulated puppets
Disregard and violate
One finger on the hip
Another on the fly
They want to dominate
« Slavery of our time »
Chorus
Max Enix: Under the moonlight
I see a line
Marcela Bovio: Beyond this tragedy

Their hate is crystal clear
Max Enix: There never is a heartbeat
Their flesh is only meat
Marcela Bovio: Once execution's done
The end we finally meet
Marcela Bovio:
I remember them
Women where there again
Why is this place so empty?
Who made them fear incessantly?
Max Enix:
Revolt is boiling
To act to conteract
Buildings will fall apart
Bodies be torn apart
« How did we get there?
Agression is cowardice
Easy to play the victim
Easy to roll the dice »
Marcela Bovio:
Easy to turn the tide
The guilt will step aside
The other's fault is bitter
« Ego never... surrenders »
Solo made by Xavier Boscher
Max Enix:
Random agressions,
against the easy prey
Bullies ruling the nations,
Justice is... far away
Who was the architect/ The mastermind ?
« To treat us like insects Subject to sick sick minds »
Marcela Bovio: Choirs behind
« And still the genocides...
Blood angels spread their wings
The leaders of our times
Are those who pull the strings
Their world is made of them
With them, by them, for them,
Abduction of the hearts
For some pleasure insane
I did my time
Under the violent blows
Of my inconsistencies
Locked up inside
Glass prison all around
Women that have no rights For men that have no hearts
Why do you close your eyes? Perpetuate the lies? »
Max Enix and Marcela Bovio: The Life that you don't save Is digging your own GRAVE
Solo made by Michael Romeo
Max Enix:
The flames that lick the bodies
Shall be the final answer
Spirits and souls set free
Passing through massacre
Cruelty is nothing new
History's painted red
« The finger points to you Lessons you've never read
Reverse the spiral,
The crushing of the bones
Why should it last forever?
Why should you turn to stone? »
Marcela Bovio (and Max Enix some words): Silence is the killer
When words can be the healer
And it must happen now!
You must ended now... We’re up against a wall
We all hurt as one
No more submission
No more self destruction
When you took their lives a part of you...
died with them
Solo made by Xavier Boscher
Marcela Bovio:
She is a broken mirror
Bruises cover her face
Her blood casts a shadow
Over all human race
« A broken hip, a broken arm
A broken dream, that's made of harm
A broken mouth, a broken eye
Her beauty's in her "I"
Sexism is the plague
The illness of our world
If the whole world's a stage
Then, there are no more words
They are part of the play
Unsane and filthy ones
But when I write the end
I'll burn the stage at once
If this is theatre
If this is not for real
Why are your laughter
Echoing in my ears?
This world is rotten
And the reason is you
Be soon forgotten
'Cause soon I'm off with you
And soon her heartbeat
We'll hear it once again
She's gonna rise up
Rise up from all this pain
The scars are there forever
But this is not your shame
This place is getting warmer And brighter in your name »
Max Enix: You are not alone... In this world
The Divine sees all... And some will fall
Marcela Bovio: There will be Justice, judgment will come
No more time... For crude games of old
Max Enix: And all the women...Beaten up yesterday
Shall be restaured... For what we see today
Marcela Bovio: A world of beauty... Only they can create
Wronged for too long... I Bless your name
Max Enix: My only wish now... For now and eons to come
Is that the taste of Life... Will be back on your tongue
« I love you woman
For you are me and I am you
If I become a man
Please forgive me and love me too »
Max Enix:
Millions of you have died Like children, petrified
So many men are tied
To this weakness I find...
Under my eyes so blind
I see a woman write
Abuses she endured
Like millions, that's for sure
Chorus
Max Enix: Under the moonlight
I see a line
Marcela Bovio: Beyond this tragedy
I see the front's fire
Max Enix: Take all the bastards down
Their world is "me,me, mine"
Marcela Bovio: Their hands know no caress
Leave blood stains on the face
Max Enix: Under this scarlet moon
They'll leave without a trace
Marcela Bovio: They have no fear
Their hate is crystal clear
Max Enix: There never is a heartbeat
Their flesh is only meat
Marcela Bovio: Once execution's done
The end we finally meet
Solo made by Xavier Boscher
Marcela Bovio:
In my dreams I can see,
So far and deep in me
Her smile's a victory
As sad as it can be
And suddenly I hope
That somewhere deep below
The guilt dies slowly
Marcela Bovio:
The shame that men have built
Solo made by Michael Romeo
« Her fist is in the air
She is and will be there
To witness to the change
The twist in our fate
Surviving the horror
Preserving the honour
So now look up to her
Her soul
Immortal
Above all
A miracle »

« I am.... I am... I am... I am... »
Max Enix:
I wake up this morning
Events scrolling in my mind
Questions I ask myself all the time
The existence of human kind
In my bed, still lying
I get up to my thoughts, rumbling
Max Enix:
In the hallway, I'm wandering
The face in the mirror seems aging
From the work and the breaking
Through the window, the sunrays piercing
« Or at least trying... »
Mahdi Khemakhem:
In this fake world
Appearance is the king
Shootdown your inner voice
Just look fresh and clean
And keep that face smiling
There's a need
Together: for a sign and a waiting
Chorus:
Mahdi Khemakhem: Emotion’s labyrinth Are haunting me « all day »
Max Enix: The meaning is still far away... You feel the most alive
Mahdi Khemakhem: When I'm bound to die Emotions in storm
Since the day I was born
Max Enix: And then on...
And until you die
It will stick to your skin
Together: A miracle of being Alive
« I see... I see... I see... I see... (echo) »
Mahdi Khemakhem:
Escape at all cost
But there's still a price to pay
Our resources are thin
And so thick is our skin
So unique each part can be
But The whole thing is fragile
No matter the time
Since Life is a curved line
Max Enix:
I'm here and you're there... Mirrors everywhere
The reflection is strange
Just enough to derange My sleep...
To the sounds of footsteps
Mahdi Khemakhem:
The gleam in your stares
Make us all look alike
When we wake from a crash Beware...
Tears of sadness and joys intertwined
Together: Flowing from everywhere...
Chorus:
Mahdi Khemakhem: Emotion’s labyrinth Are haunting me « all day »
Max Enix: The meaning is still far away... You feel the most alive
Mahdi Khemakhem: When I'm bound to die Emotions in storm
Since the day I was born
Max Enix: And then on...
And until you die
It will stick to your skin
Together: A miracle of being Alive
Elise Wachbar:
On our lips as inside the brain
Our features blend outside again
Waters flowing out of our skin
From the pores, evaporating
On dangerous ground, your feet are freezing
External events rise, controlling
« The use of bones and limbs and skin
Reproduction can't be the only meaning
While our thoughts and souls are forging
The weak revealed on our nerve endings »
Max Enix:
Our teeth will fall with age or kicking
Like withered flowers or... burnt victims
Coagulation, petrifying
The liquid life that flows
Within
« Far inside
I draw from my resource
The meanders of our souls Connected to all
Invisible world behind Vivid although it hides
In cortexes of ours »
Max Enix:
Creations of the mind
A color and a verse
An image and a pulse
That's sent beyond this curse
Back to the Universe
« I’m an unhinged puppet That desperingly inarticulate »
Max Enix:
In directions unknown
The river that has flown
Inside the veins of mine
Red as the darkest wine
Max Enix: The ground under my feet

« And we are just a passage
The one of our age
I'll stop the time
For you to see
Get out of line
Gradually
Condition's fine
For my story
And in a distant dimension
Far from this condition
We may evolve
Find ways to be Perspectives open
For those who see
But is it only
possible now?
With demons screaming from every sides
By dint of learning
By dint of falling Lesson in a living form of believing
I know you're fighting
You've always been Against the monsters you hold within
Lost in the abyss
The youth will be
Forbidden to bliss
As you will see
But it has always been so
Behind light there's a shadow
If appearance's a goal
Our fate shall be a fall With silhouettes deformed
Even the soul transformed »
Mahdi Khemakhem:
Broken facades and mirrors
Broken shapes and valours
You fear there's nowhere to go now
But deep inside you hear a vow
It's time once and for all
To be a slave, to be a slave no more
« As life is flashing back
A light darker than black Obscurity that lacks
This fundamental spark
The Cosmos shall provide
The places where we hide
With strenght that is renewed
Apathy we refuse
Our honour is at stake
The meaning of life is there for you to take »
Chorus:
Mahdi Khemakhem: Emotion’s labyrinth Are haunting me « all day »
Max Enix: The meaning is still far away... You feel the most alive
Mahdi Khemakhem: When I'm bound to die Emotions in storm
Since the day I was born
Max Enix: And then on...
And until you die
It will stick to your skin
Together: A miracle of being Alive
Max Enix:
Is this a paradise?
Is infinity finite?
A miracle of Nature
Boundless and multicoloured
Emotions are transformed
New entities are formed
« Watch the smile that now appears
Innocent souls travel to meet
On this unbreakable summit »
Max Enix:
Can you hear the sound?
Can you feel the vibes?
Can you know the transformation?
Recognize a face that shines?
Behold...
Together: The Signs
« Emotions are there to overcome
The eyes open when a love is born
Senses to heal
Moments to dream
Connect and change
Think of our pains
Moments to leave
Moments to live
Moments to greave
Moments to breathe
Your choice is yours Here is your force »
« Still conscious of this world?
Our bodies shall return
Forever, ever and ever
Back to this good old Earth »
Max Enix:
Morning light, and we're gathered again
The spring reign is soon to begin
Our skins, of different colours
Shine in an fragile splendour
In this ocean of men
Softness is back again
Is it the end of pain?
At least we smile again
« Feet buried in the sand
Waves provide soft caress
It's time to heal and bless
The ones caught in distress
To love in consciousness
Purpose of existence
Now love in all its forms Reinstaured as the norm »
Elise wachbar:
There's no more time to waste
After the war has raged
We have died every day
Now end the disarray
« We don't want this anymore »
Our instincts cannot take control
Let's take it back, let's make it grow »
Max Enix:
The love that's burns inside us all
Compassion is the way
For those who are led astray
And for the years to come
We pray to overcome
« The ways of selfishness
That led us to our death »
Mahdi Khemakhem:
Values are to rise
Consciousness is the path
Consciousness is the path (x 3)
« Journeys
Journeys
Shall take very far
The door is still ajar »
Max Enix:
The wind blows in my ears
There's nothing left to fear
Time passes and I sigh
The world biding its time
Max Enix:
Drawing lines in the sand
Like on the palms of hands
Destiny I construct
Symphony I conduct
« 50 years have passed...
Ethan is 85 now.
Throughout his life, he has seen all: the beauty, the wild, the horror, the sublime, the intimate, the fragile...
Near the porch of his ranch, he tries to rest, watching his horses run... His thoughts confused.
He can't help but think of this announcement, posted everywhere:
"The storm of the century is coming"
Some say it announces the arrival of some meteorite... But who knows?..."Are we to be finally destroyed? Are we the new dinosaurs?..." A bitter laugh escapes him...
Anyway, he doesn't fear death anymore... he's ready, and has been for a long time now...
But not everyone is... for sure... »

Mirrors Of Time

Max Enix:
How time has passed by
My wrinkles visible now
My skin is getting dry
Reflection of my life
Nature provided me
With moments you can see
On these signs of aging, clearly
And I still have faith
The future lies ahead
The marks here on my face
Are signs that I'm not dead, yet
What will the future bring?
Will happiness still sing?
Heather Findlay: Renewal, universal,
Max Enix: Life just goes on for all
Heather Findlay: But youth is wasted on the young
« I fear the wise is not the strong
And on this Earth where they belong
They spend their precious time alone
Are they too young to understand?
Or me, too old to comprehend?
Life is a path to take, a dream awake
We should live it before it's too late
Closer to winter, far from spring
Soon be my final ending
I am prepared for what death brings
But still I shiver, as the storm is coming »
Heather Findlay:
I can find finally
Surrounding love in me
I can see purity
In your humanity
Chorus:
Heather Findlay and Damian Wilson:
Mirrors of time
Have nothing to hide
There's no false pretence
What begins soon ends
As the children laugh
Genuinely Brave
We carry our weight
From cradle to grave
Damian Wilson:
There's a crooked line
On the streets where you go
Weightless and pale
There's a distant shadow
A phantom’s veil
On reality
And illusions dance
In every alley
Hope is a fragile dream
It comes and goes in beams
Like sunrays in winter
Like rain drops of summer
Growing old is a transformation
Heather Findlay: You cannot win this fight
Damian Wilson: You just accept your plight
Heather Findlay: This tired, opaque form
« You wear like a uniform
Is proof that you have fought The cruellest war of all »
« And fear resound again Reminds you of old pains Warning calls in the distance Now is there any chance? »
Heather Findlay and Damian Wilson:
Beauty is everywhere
But now we are all scared
Threats coming from outside
Disturb our peace of mind
« Around your soul there is an aura I can perceive it here and now
In for a losing game Like a sorrowful flame »
Chorus:
Heather Findlay and Damian Wilson:
Mirrors of time
Have nothing to hide
There's no false pretence
What begins soon ends
As the children laugh
Genuinely Brave
We carry our weight
From cradle to grave
Heather Findlay:
Memory is a refuge
The precious years preserved
Go there when you need to
The present's so disturbed
Heather Findlay:
Sparks sparkle in this space
Where joy and tears collide
In there you find your place
In there you dare to hide
The need for strength
Is weakness all denied
Max Enix:
Embrace your weakness now
And like a phoenix, rise
The end is coming near
Conclusion crystal clear
Do you see what's to see
Through eyes so dulled by fear?
Damian Wilson:
A darkened paradise
Is where you've lived your life
A Banquet of shattered dreams
Display of fractured bones
Despite your future fear
All piled amongst a heap of broken stones
« There is still hope in you Do what you have to do Protect, preserve, Command, and serve
A final fight to fight
A final light to light
A dream that never ends
Is what you long for
But our bitter end
Was planned so long before »
Max Enix:
And I will fly to you
Wherever you can be
'Cause in your arms, I do
Feel what I need
To love and to be loved
Is what it takes
I know what is the cost:
My heart shall break
Damian Wilson:
Just see the horse that runs
He's where he's meant to be
His time is passing by
But at least he is free
No past, no future
Just present to endure
No future, no past
Invert the hourglass
« A prison without bars
Enslaves you from afar
Hourglass with no sand
This is where you should stand »
Max Enix:
There is a vineyard
Where sour seeds will grow
The work of men
Soon to be overthrown
All creatures are immortal
As long as they don't know
That existence is doomed
But what withers has bloomed
Solo made by Xavier Boscher
« Despite a wounded soul
The colours on your face
Are there to show the world
The real meaning of grace »
Heather Findlay and Damian Wilson:
Despite the blood that flows
Inside these tired veins
Colours are there to show
That beauty has no age
Chorus:
Heather Findlay and Damian Wilson:
Mirrors of time
Have nothing to hide
There's no false pretence
What begins soon ends
As the children laugh
Genuinely Brave
We carry our weight
From cradle to grave
Max Enix:
Mirrors of time
Are devoid of lie
They are here and now
The darkness you hide
And the skies so bright
Are within our hearts
Outside and inside
There is rain and clouds
« As short as it seems Whatever life brings
You can't stop believing... The clock is ticking.... »
Max Enix:
Senses are labyrinths
Where what is lost is found
The beggar and the Prince
Both know this ancient sound
Damian Wilson: Of the great transformation
That occurs in the heart
When all of their perceptions
Suddenly reunite
Max Enix: Senses are labyrinths
Heather Findlay: Where what is found is lost
Max Enix: The beggar and the Prince
Heather Findlay: Both know there is a cost For self-mutation
« For one to stand one's ground
Senses are labyrinths
Where what is lost is found »
Heather Findlay:
Real wounds are boundless
You never can be fearless
They say that time is the healer
The truth is that it takes you...
Max Enix: Further
Solo made by Xavier Boscher
Max Enix:
I finally found the inner peace
I finally found my inner peace
In this infinity
Max Enix: The glow on your face
Heather Findlay and Damian Wilson: Is a reason for being
Max Enix: The glow of the sense
Heather Findlay and Damian Wilson: Is the sign that you are living
Max Enix: This glow is no curse
Heather Findlay and Damian Wilson: It echoes in the universe
Max Enix: The glow you forget
Heather Findlay and Damian Wilson: Has meaning uneasy to get
Max Enix: The glow that's coming
Heather Findlay and Damian Wilson: Is worth yesterday's suffering
Max Enix: The glow that is gone
Heather Findlay and Damian Wilson: Wrote all the hymns you sing along
Max Enix: The glow that is yours
Heather Findlay and Damian Wilson: A Source of illumination
Max Enix: The glow you endure
Heather Findlay and Damian Wilson: A perfect imperfection
Heather Findlay and Damian Wilson: The glow
"The threat is real
I feel the fear that is growing
Thoughts become our enemies
Because the vision is scary:
Can you imagine?
Gigantic stones, falling from the sky
And tidal waves,
The walls of fire...
The wait seems endless...
What's gonna happen?
Mass extinction, or just nothing?
Nobody knows...
Anyway...
Do we deserve it all?
Anyway...
I'm scared
Within a few hours
The storm will be there"

« The storm is here
New Apocalypse
I send a prayer for all
For all who hear my call
Those who now lay to rest
Those who have made their best
And wished for better days
To them I send my prayers »
Max Enix and Benjamin Guerry (Guitars):
Hey you, playing your games
This pain is here to stay
Never played by the rules
The storm shall take you, fools
Your wrath is there for everyone
Deserved or not, right on time
All caught in a rat race
The blow right in your face
Niklas Kvarforth:
Deception politics
You loved to play your tricks
Whining like babies
You are the disease
Corrupt society
You're rotten to the core
People lived left for dead
This cannot be ignored
Niklas Kvarforth:
Are we just pawns?
While you strengthen your thrones
While laws are made by you
For all except for you
On this twisted playground
The chessboard of all crimes
We die without a sound
While you deny our rights
Max Enix:
You look superior
Or at least you want to
Your way's inferior
And malevolent too
Ego, divisions
Driven by bad decisions
So clever to your eyes
You are nothing by lies
Max Enix and Mody Ptd (Benjamin Guerry Guitars):
People against people
Country against country
You're waging war on our souls
Just stay away from me
Elise wachbar:
In this moment of calm
Everything revolves around me
In this moment of clarity
We want a world in peace
Max Enix:
But something's on
That can be good for none
Skies painted gore
Another cry for war
Chorus:
Max Enix:
Their dream is now complete
The plan is clear: delete
I want to see... the world turn
Some want to see... the world burn
Max Enix and Mody Ptd:
Give everything my Love,
My Freedom and my Joy
Benjamin Guerry (+Guitars):
To hell the Ego
Off with your attitude
Still a long way to go
To finally get rid of you:
Max Enix and Benjamin Guerry (+guitars):
Corruption and the oppression
Division and domination
Benjamin Guerry (+Guitars):
This permanent destruction
That you call civilization
Niklas Kvarforth:
To hell with cruelty
Death to superiority
Preaching demise
You're all snakes in disguise
Off with your every "ism",
You hide behind in treason
What's hidden there
Is hate beyond repair
Niklas Kvarforth:
Sale of human beings and animals,
forced prostitution, forced marriages because of religions,
pollution, forced labor,
destroy and manipulate, our friends and neighbors
Max Enix:
Nature gives and takes back
The world is back on track
This world unfair
Where no one ever cares
See your mistakes
You thought you were so strong
See what it takes
To just never belong
Max Enix and Mody Ptd (+Benjamin Guerry Guitars):
Our necks soon broken
Like matches start the flames
Slowly you lit the torch
The day of reckoning
Elise wachbar:
There is no devil per se...
Just good and bad ways
Spirits and souls meet halfway
The choice was yours to make
Max Enix:
I want to see the world turn
Some want to see the world burn
Chorus:
Max Enix:
Their dream is now complete
The plan is clear: delete
I want to see... the world turn
Some want to see... the world burn
Max Enix and Mody Ptd:
Give everything my Love,
My Freedom and my Joy
« Suddenly, you see it too
The world turns before you
We start to hear the rumours
They end up in a clamour
The storm has turned
We were prepared to burn
A hope of life irrupts
For all this world corrupt
A chance is there to get
I can't believe it yet... »
Max Enix and Benjamin Guerry:
Human history
Is broken history
Neglect and take
That's what you make,
A world of blindness Ignorant maze
In this unconsciousness
You dwell for real
This void of emptiness
Is oh too real
That's what you're all about
For all humanity
« Here comes again The real storm
The heart of man
The heart of the storm »
« The hope was thin, soon crashed down
The swirls of the wind are flying now
In a burst they take away the towns
An air like fire all around
Houses turned to ashes
Dreams of old in lashes
Roofs are crashing on the floor
The Gods can't quench their thirst for more
It brings back tortured memories
When blood melt with the seven sees
Polluted oceans turn to red
Humanity on its deathbed
Like napalm spreading all over
For trees and grass, and spring and flowers
The table's set, the dance is over
The pesticides are all we breathe
The smiling ones now all bereaved »
Benjamin Guerry (+Guitars):
The fear of fear, the crashing bombs
Old soldiers walking from their tombs
They laugh at us, at all that lives
To never learn, never believe
The same madness, since dawn of times
The same complaint, sung with the eyes
The same moments, sung on repeat
The same, the same, the same... complete
Niklas Kvarforth:
Nothing stops machines of death
A single drive can hold a breath
Forevermore this is our fate
The high command, commands the hate
The worst of crimes that you commit
Avenged but Earth itself, admit
That what's to do is to submit
When all is said and done, that's it!
You can beg for mercy
You can't gain from misery
When shaking death's hand is postponed
It means you are the eye of the cyclone
Because what is doomed to fail will fail
We all know the end of this tale
The clever and the strong prevailed
But now we all share the same hell
« Nature's purge Feel the urge Torrents of mud »
Niklas Kvarforth: Mad mad world
« And everything must end
Even the storm itself
The urge is to survive
The enemy is time »
Gold is the war nerve
But servants are to serve
You can't obey and rule
You remain just a tool
Some sleep on piles of gold
They also will grow old,
They sing and dance, forgetting That without miners, they're nothing
See that all this time they've lied
Bread and games to keep you all occupied
Numb by your TV screens
Deaf to the ones that scream
Through artificial skin
You cannot feel a thing
Or even dare to think,
Making sense from nothing »
Elise wachbar:
We played with fire
With brains so high and wired
Distraction from all Life
Running in circle lines
Max Enix:
In the gloom I see a light
Wallflowers laid in line
Chorus:
Max Enix:
Their dream is now complete
The plan is clear: delete
I want to see... the world turn
Some want to see... the world burn
Max Enix and Mody Ptd:
Give everything my Love,
My Freedom and my Joy
Elise Wachbar:
It seems the threats are now receding
Here, there and everywhere
But homes are still collapsing
Life as a whole seems so unfair
The waves are crashing down
Carrying all sorts of remains
« Dead bodies all around
Hard to clean the mental stains »
Max Enix:
The question of survival
Has always been the only one
The answer's not material
In fact it's all a state of mind
Max Enix and Niklas Kvarforth:
In fact it!s all a state of mind x2
« Comfort is a mystery
A blur before our eyes
Distraction from our misery
A veil, a thin disguise
The rocks that light the skies
Will surely soon be there
The curse of our time
Insecurity everywhere »
Niklas Kvarforth:
The warning signs you ignored
Are screaming for you now
Humanity transformed
For the rest of our time
« It has happened before
There's nothing new at all
Vanquished civilizations
We're the new dinosaurs
The only difference
Is the truth of our guilt
In our indifference
We broke ourselves, you see...
We look so pale and shaken
An entire world has fallen
And still we have to face
The ultimate disgrace
That's coming from the sky
Our dying time is now »
« We pray for another chance
To dance another dance
Oh Gods if you exist
Let us now live in peace
Is there a final chapter?
Or are we really doomed?
This question needs an answer
It will come really soon...
The end of an Era again ? »
Solo by Xavier Boscher
Niklas Kvarforth:
AGAIN... AGAIN...

« In Space astronauts see the Earth and the deluge that has fallen on it Hundreds of billions of galaxies, planets and stars around
In Cosmic silence, that reigns around
Resound the crash of men
On their devient ground »
Max Enix:
And from afar they see
A species incomplete
A broken animal
That cannot take its toll
Jon Pyres: Dark matter still expends
Dan Swano: Darkness seems without end
Jon Pyres: But see, here comes the glow
Dan Swano: Of our sun's halo
Max Enix:
How much time can be left
Before the final break
Of joy we are bereft
But there's a path to take
Remnants of love
Look like they're heaven-sent
But in these skies above
Venus seems so distant
Toby Driver:
Feels like the eyes were made
To bear witness
To the hidden beauty
In this mess
Every rock hides a crack
Every thorn has its flower
The plenty holds a lack
A desert in a river
« The Earth is doomed to vanish Of this, now, I am sure »
Kobi Farhi:
Humankind is vanquished
Our playground is no more
Kobi Farhi:
This rock will crush us all
Our lives will turn to dust
The rise and then the fall
Disappear now we must
Dan Swano:
A lightening light
A sparkling spark
Brightness so bright
Darkness so dark
All is in place
As it must be
Carsten Schulz:
For Human race
Exit only
Max Enix:
Forgive the ones who have destroyed
Thank you to all that you have brought
I am now old
How can I be more bold?
Carsten Schulz:
Thinking of past and future lives
But of remorses I'm deprived
Memories of beautiful moments
The unfolding of existence
Dan Swano:
Nostalgia...
Chorus:
Max Enix and Carsten Schulz:
Eyes to the future
Eyes to see the light
Eyes made to light up
And shine into the night
Harmony in heart
The cell is in our mind
Witness the new start
It flows from blood and stars x2
« In the corner of this life
Through this corridor, ajar
Punishment sent from the stars
Now awaiting in the skies »
Dan Swano:
A fatal outcome
A fate we cannot hide
David Fremberg:
Again the colors change
The shadow of the end
David Fremberg:
Take my flesh, crucify me
Just spill my blood and drink it
Dan Swano: Oh Lord, in these dark hours
David Fremberg: Take my flesh, crucify me
Just spill my blood and drink it
Dan Swano: Can you still be a saviour?
Jon Pyres and David Fremberg:
Your flesh, your body, your blood
The sombre blinding light
« This story is our own Carved in the stones of time
Pictures of burried Earth
Paintings of new born child »
Carsten Schulz:
This story is so long
And brief at the same time
Eternity is now for you
Vestiges were once new
Abandoned places
Echoing with our sighs
But when tomorrow comes
It takes over all lives
Elise wachbar:
Reflection of time
Perfume of Love
Reflection of Joy
Perfume of these flavors
Max Enix:
Reflection of lights
Perfume of Peace
Reflection of respect
Scent of Freedom
Reflection of enjoyment
Fragrance of Madness
Reflection of passion
Scent of Happiness
Reflection of Goodness
Perfume of Truth
Reflection of Justice
Scent of Innocence
Toby Driver:
And yet I love this Earth
Its animality
Emotions are rebirths
Max Enix:
The dreams and memories
The rivers and the trees
Languages and silences
All so soft to my ears
Nostalgia, it seems
Is always the price to pay
For living in this realm
There's nothing left to say
Jon Pyres:
Behold the mountains high
Behold the tiny worms
Innocence is not mine
It takes several forms
David Fremberg:
A cosmic energy
Is pumping through all hearts
In our lethargy
We have fallen apart
Max Enix:
The horizons show
How reason is to grow
Tomorrow, it shall come
But will you still be there?
The dead and the new born
This cycle so unfair
Max Enix:
Eyes to see... Reality
To fight... For Love
Eyes to follow...
His Freedom To fight... oppression
To create... A better world
David Fremberg:
Just tell me what you see
With Evil all around
And do you understand
What makes me stand my ground?
Solo made by Shad Mae
Elise wachbar:
It's all a question of mind
Openness is the only choice we have
Are you so innate?
You are to seal your fate
Max Enix:
Through all the paths that you take
Through all the words you utter
Through all the good that you make
And through the Evil under
Michael Onetwenty:
Vibrations...
Why don't you see no further
Expectations...
To bring life is to murder
One day...
What was and is, is over
Some day...
We could all start it over
Conditions...
Condition all the people
Restrictions...
Restrict the real to behold
A fraction...
Of life's stream is what you are
A Instant...
And then it's soon "au revoir"...
So keep on carrying
Your burden and your pain
It's nothing
And everything, all the same...
The hatred
Explodes, and hell will follow
Then in the end:
A bitter pill to swallow
« On other planets
We hope that we will find Some other plans to set
Some brains better than ours »
David Fremberg:
But we know not a thing
About this mad projections
But This Earth, the only thing
For our protection
Max Enix:
So point your finger
Accuse the Other
The perpetrator
Is in the mirror
Laurene Telennaria:
As I walked down the aisles
I looked at living hell
Erected by strong men
Controlled by mad men
Laurene Telennaria:
And saved and doomed, then,
On and on, the same x2
"The meteor is approaching...
The windows are blown out but during the penetra- tion of the earth atmosphere it miraculously disintegrates due to a bad inclination... Explosion/Deflagration
An unheard of and unexpected chance (1 chance on 1 billion)
Fragments are scattered everywhere
Pieces crash in other places "
Max Enix:
Amazed... A luminous Eclipse appears in the sky...
Toby Driver:
It illuminates all the surrounding landscapes
« The planned destruction did not take place
Some buildings are still standing
The nature is again partly luxuriant
Divine miracle, a last chance offered
Vision of ancient civilizations, of the Incas and the Egyptians from the top of their indestructible and rustproof pyramids
Kobi Farhi:
Tell me what you see
Tell me where you are going
Tell me what happened
Tell me what is the reason
Max Enix:
Tell me what this phenomenon is
Tell me it's real
Kobi Farhi :
Tell me where we really are x2
Tell me... Are we... really still alive?
Solo made by Sébastien Dubail:
Dan Swano:
Pinch me x4
OM
« A reason to live that reappears
All the senses, encompassing
The beings all around
As joy explodes again
Are rooted to the ground
With hearts burst into flames
Miracle looks so real
And hope is there again
One song is left to sing
The beauty and the pain »
Chorus:
Max Enix and Carsten Schulz:
Eyes to the future
Eyes to see the light
Eyes made to light up
And shine into the night
Harmony in heart
The cell is in our mind
Witness the new start
It flows from blood and stars x2
Jon Pyres:
Joy and melancholy intermingled
Some are gone but some are living
As we sing our song, entangled
Some cry and some are smiling
Contemplate the Eclipse
Its not the only one
My lips against your lips
We both shall rise and shine
David Fremberg:
I know you are so tired
And you know, so am I
Of this cycles of hope
And despair, intertwined
They roll and roll endlessly
It seems without an end
Maybe because, you see,
This meaning's what is meant
Toby Driver:
In every story
Since men are the same men
Walking this Earth so lonely
Surrounded by the same
Elise wachbar:
Awareness is to come
Consciousness is to come
New cycles are to come
Weapons and viper's tongues
Kobi Farhi:
The loved and the unloved
Reemerging all again
Max Enix:
For all eternity
We are part of this chain
And this is what we are
And nothing more than...
A little grain of sand
Little drops in the mist
Experimenting pain
Experimenting peace
Chorus x2:
Max Enix and Carsten Schulz:
Eyes to the future
Eyes to see the light
Eyes made to light up
And shine into the night
Harmony in heart
The cell is in our mind
Witness the new start
It flows from blood and stars x2
Dan Swano:
Eyes to the Future x 4 repetition
Max Enix and Carsten Schulz:
Eyes to the Future x 4 repetition
« It's like a breath that whispers
And rushes through time
Enigma from the past,
that lingers
And resound through Infinity now
The lost page of a book, hidden
The last race to a dying sun
As time is slowing down
The rain starts falling down »
Dan Swano:
The rain... The rain...
The RAIN... The RAIN
Jon Pyres:
Some will choose to destroy
Some will choose to despise
Some may just look for joy
Some will hide in disguise
Max Enix:
Some will choose to forget
Injuries of past wars
But some will keep reminding
Old mistakes on and on
For those who dare to care
Kobi Farhi:
Options are still opened
For those who care to dare
Same old mistakes has be done
A new ride has begun
Riding the same old horses
With all these renewed senses
May life can be erased
By power, money forces
By him, who not embraces
A hope with many faces
« We meet around the beach
A few months later...
The children play
The air is clear, people are happy, grateful,
and laugh together,
without malice or ulterior motives... in good mood and warm understanding.
They contemplate the sky and the Horizon, the sunset
We are more and more on Earth,
And we owe it to ourselves
to be united at last.
Let's leave the rest behind »
Laurene Telannaria (+harp):
Contemplating the stars
The castles made of sand
We forget all the scars
On our souls and hands
Children will play again
The old will die again
The rest is history
The rest is Mystery
« Hatred no more
Corruption no more
Respect the nature
Protect the future
Brothers and sisters
Fathers and mothers
Daughters and sons
Moons and suns... »
All together: Unite
« Let the children hear your tale
Let them open up their eyes
Know this is no fairytale
Let them know this is no lies
Let them open up their hearts
Take them back now to the start
When there was something to win beyond fear and beyond sin »
« Let the birds follow their course
Let the river and its source
Be a part of who you are
Be a sun among the stars
Be a parent to your kin
Both tender and hard within
In a world that's so unclean
Be the best that they have seen
Be the sunlight in their eyes
Be the truth destroying lies
Be the rock under their feet
Be a circle now complete
Be a shadow in their back
To make yours their share of black
Be their reason to believe
There are strong reasons to live »
« We are alive I am alive
Close to home
Back again
Through the Cosmos we have appeared
Through Water and its different states we are immortal (invulnerable) Through the Water we are united »
« Eyes turned towards this hill
Eyes on that new door
Eyes looking at the river heading to the sea
The eyes that look back at that storm behind us
The eyes of a child waiting
Eyes that see a new beginning »
Max Enix:
Very old now I've done my time
It's time for me to go
To a new stage of my life
To take my leave
My time has come
The world will live on without me that's the main thing
Final solo by Timo Somers
Max Enix:
My strength is dwindling and I'm cold
It's time for me to go through this bright and golden door
It sucks me in and I am only a shadow in the distance
« Elsewhere towards this unknown
My mind is at peace where I am now
My senses are no longer the same
And I feel light and lively again »
Max Enix:
On the other side of this door
« I see the world differently
It looks like heaven but it's so familiar at the same time »
Max Enix:
On the other side of the door
Ethan: « I see a happy world filled with Love »
Elise wachbar:
Vision of a tear running down my cheek
Max Enix:
Through new eyes and a new appearance
